Tapmedia Privacy Policy

Last Updated: 30th March 2021

(Tapmedia Ltd - "We and Us") are committed to protecting and respecting Your privacy.

This Policy statement sets out the basis on which any personal data We collect from "You", or that You provide to us, will be processed by us. By visiting tapmedia.co.uk or by using one of our apps or products or services You are accepting and consenting to the practices described in this Policy statement. This document deals generally with privacy issues affecting users worldwide, users affected by General Data Protection Regulations in the European Union and in the United Kingdom. It also covers certain app specific or country specific matters (see below).

DanceApp - Privacy Policy "Key Points"

If you decide not to read this entire Privacy Policy, we want you to walk away with these key points about the DanceApp privacy practices:

The App uses neural network technology to automatically generate a 3D avatar using your photos.

Due to the limited processing resources available on mobile devices we use our own dedicated GPU servers to process and edit photographs. We do NOT use third-party cloud providers such as Google Cloud Platform and Amazon Web Services. We have built our own server infrastructure to protect your privacy.

The App only uploads to our servers the photos and 3D data (TrueDepth data) that you specifically record using the App.

Photos are temporarily cached on our servers during the editing process. All your photos and other 3D data (e.g. 3D face data generated using TrueDepth) uploaded to our server are deleted within 24 hours after your initial upload (typically within an hour of your upload).

We do not use the photos you provide when you use the App for any reason other than to provide you with the 3D avatar creation of the App.

If you have any questions about our privacy practices in DanceApp or would like to confirm that your app data has been removed from our servers, please feel free to contact us

DanceApp - Information We Collect "Key Points"

In certain circumstances you have the right for the processing of your Personal Data to be restricted. This is the case where: you do not think that the Personal Data we hold about you is accurate; your data is being processed unlawfully, but you do not want your data to be erased; it is no longer necessary for us to hold your Personal Data for the purposes of our processing, but you still require that Personal Data in relation to a legal claim; and you have objected to processing, and are waiting for that objection to be verified. Where processing has been restricted for one of these reasons, we may continue to store your Personal Data.
